Tips & Suggestions

Preparation

Preparation Tip 1

Use a pink gin with botanicals such as rose, grapefruit, or rhubarb; it amplifies the cocktail's natural blush hue and constructs a more layered profile.

Serving

Serving Tip 1

Build the cocktail in the glass without shaking or stirring; it maintains clarity, carbonation, and avoids over-dilution.
